Fleas & Ticks FAQ's

  • Are fleas and ticks dangerous?

    Yes. They can transmit diseases to both humans and pets if left untreated.

  • Are fleas and ticks dangerous to my pet?

    Yes. They can cause itching, skin infections, anemia, and transmit diseases. Heavy infestations can significantly affect a pet’s comfort and health.

  • Can fleas and ticks live indoors?

    Yes. Fleas can infest carpets and furniture, while ticks may hide in baseboards and pet bedding.

  • Do fleas only come from pets?

    No. Fleas can enter homes from wildlife, yards, or previous infestations, even without pets.

  • How can I prevent fleas and ticks from biting my pet?

    Use vet approved preventives such as collars, topical treatments, or oral medications; keep your pet’s coat clean and brushed; avoid high‑risk areas like tall grass and brush; and inspect pets regularly for attached parasites.

  • How do I get rid of fleas and ticks on my pet?

    Use appropriate shampoos or treatments recommended by your veterinarian, treat the home and yard, vacuum frequently, and wash bedding.

  • Why is treatment important for fleas and ticks?

    Interior and exterior treatment reduces breeding grounds and helps prevent re-infestation inside the home.

  • What are the signs of a flea or tick infestation?

    Look for scratching, visible fleas or ticks, flea dirt (tiny black specks in the fur), irritated skin, hair loss, or pale gums in severe cases of blood loss.

  • What diseases can fleas and ticks transmit?

    They can spread several illnesses, including Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, ehrlichiosis, and other bacterial or parasitic infections that affect both pets and people.

Picture this: a small, wingless, blood-sucking hitchhiker that decides to make your pet its personal buffet, resulting in discomfort and incessant itching. Yes, that’s a flea. On the other hand, ticks are the eight-legged versions of this nightmare, latching onto you and your pet, playing the unwelcome role of disease transmitters.

As a keen-eyed pet parent, you’ve got the first line of defense. Fleas are tiny acrobats that are black or brown, around the size of a pinhead. You may see them jumping around on your pet’s fur or nestled amongst hair follicles upon closer inspection. Ticks, on the other hand, take a more laid-back approach. These small, oval-shaped freeloaders will either be attached to your pet’s skin or just casually strolling around on the ground. The size of ticks can greatly depend on how much blood they’ve consumed, with fully grown females expanding to the size of a raisin when fully fed.

To tackle these troublemakers, you can start with a flea and tick-specific shampoo or spray. Think of these as your pet’s personalized anti-pest armor, ridding them of fleas and ticks on contact.

Next up, consider equipping your pet with a flea and tick collar. It’s like a miniature bug zapper that continuously releases a flea and tick destroying insecticide.‍

Additionally, wield your vacuum like a sword, ensuring a thorough cleanup of your home. This will effectively rid your floors of any stray fleas and ticks, leaving no stone unturned or rather, no carpet un-vacuumed. 

Lastly, to completely protect your home, we recommend that you utilize a pest control expert such as Aruza as we will create a customized treatment plan for your home that will help to treat and prevent flea and tick outbreaks.

The best form of defense? Prevention! Regular grooming and keeping your pet’s fur clean and mat-free is a must. Additionally, make a habit of applying a flea and tick preventative to your pet’s fur on a monthly basis.

Keeping your yard tidy and debris-free is another important preventive measure. A clean yard equals less attractive real estate for these parasites.
